CHATHAM, N.Y. ( NEWS10 ) — Chatham Brewing’s “Loaded Brewery Burger” was crowned the winner of the New York Beef Council’s eighth annual Best NY Burger competition . The burger is served on a toasted sweet roll with a locally-raised beef patty, white cheddar mac-n-cheese, Applewood bacon, and molasses barbecue.

After the Top 10 eateries from around New York were announced, 19 judges went to each restaurant to score the burgers. The New York Beef Council said Chatham Brewing’s burger was the clear favorite among the judges.

“Thank you to all of our loyal customers for your support and the New York Beef Council for this honor,” wrote Chatham Brewing on Facebook .
